Correction:  LKB1 suppression promotes cardiomyocyte regeneration via LKB1-AMPK-YAP axis

Area of Science:

• Cardiovascular Biology
• Molecular Medicine
• Regenerative Medicine

Background:

• The study investigates the role of the Liver Kinase B1 (LKB1) signaling pathway in cardiomyocyte regeneration.
• Understanding LKB1's influence is crucial for developing therapies for cardiac repair.

Purpose of the Study:

• To correct an inadvertent image placement error in Figure 4 of a previously published study.
• To ensure the accurate depiction of experimental results concerning LKB1's role in cardiomyocyte regeneration.

Main Methods:

• The correction involved re-examining immunofluorescence images used in the study.
• The mislabeled image for the "LKB1 OE" group was identified and corrected.

Main Results:

• An immunofluorescence image for the "vector" group was mistakenly used for the "LKB1 OE" group in the original Figure 4D1.
• The corrected Figure 4 accurately represents the experimental conditions.

Conclusions:

• The correction of the image placement error does not alter the study's statistical analysis, interpretation, or overall conclusions.
• The findings regarding the LKB1-AMPK-YAP axis in cardiomyocyte regeneration remain valid.
